Christopher Aguilar, a 27-year-old Hispanic/Latino man, was shot and killed on April 13, 2026, on Milwaukee’s south side. The early-morning gunfire began about 5:30 a.m. near South 7th Street and West Historic Mitchell Street in the 700 block of West Mitchell. Aguilar was found on the sidewalk with multiple gunshot wounds outside the offices of Voces de la Frontera; no one was inside the office when bullets shattered a window and left holes in the building’s walls.

Surveillance footage from Voces de la Frontera and nearby businesses captured chaotic moments of people running before someone opened fire on Aguilar in front of the organization’s office. Police later identified a vehicle they believed was connected to the killing and located it around 4:47 p.m. That vehicle fled, crashed during a pursuit, and its driver, identified as Nicholas Maslowski, fired at pursuing officers. Officers returned fire, striking Maslowski; he later died at a hospital. Firearms were recovered at the crash scene. Because Maslowski died the same day, he was never arrested, charged, or tried in connection with Aguilar’s death. Authorities have not publicly established a motive or fully explained what immediately led to the shooting.

Did anyone see Aguilar in the hours before 5:30 a.m. that morning or notice the vehicle linked to the incident?
